Things to do in Kanazawa

Guides were very knowledgeable about the area and even the driver can speak English. It was snowing during our visit. The time given to explore the area was just nice, not too long or too short. The agent was also very helpful to accommodate to our dietary requirements. Recommended.

The weather was great, and it was a fulfilling trip. I took some wonderful landscape photos. Yasushi was a fantastic guide. During the trip, I asked about the bear incident. I’m sorry my English isn’t very good—I was trying to make a joke to lighten the mood. I truly hope all disasters have passed and won’t happen again. Peace and safety are the most important things.

We had a great experience on the Shirakawa-go, Kenrokuen, and Higashi-Chaya tour. The pace was a bit rushed, but it was exactly what we needed to see all the highlights in just one day. We also really appreciated that the tour started and ended exactly on time. Huge thanks to our guide Cesar for a very thorough tour, clear instructions, and helpful sightseeing tips. He did a great job keeping everyone on schedule. Shout-out as well to Ikeda-san, our bus driver, for driving safely despite the heavy snow and for kindly lending us his umbrella. The tour operator was also very responsive to our questions on WhatsApp, which made everything smoother. Overall, a well-organized tour and a great option if you want to cover a lot in one day.

Here’s a polished version you could post as a review: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a wonderful private walking tour in Kanazawa with our guide, Akari. The experience felt truly personalised and we loved being able to shape the tour around our interests. Akari was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and such a delight to spend time with; her eagerness to share insights and answer our questions really deepened our understanding of the culture and sights. Having that context made everything so much more meaningful. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kanazawa!

we are the only 2 customers, and tour guide Adeline happens to be from hong kong as well, so we use Cantonese to communicate. she’s fantastic to recommend good places to eat. Inami and Ainokura Village are certainly off the beaten track and we can enjoy the tranquility there without loads of tourists. the making of Japanese papers is certainly interesting. of course Shirakawa is very beautiful as well. this tour is highly recommended.

好，以下是很適合直接貼在 Klook 的英文評論版本（語氣自然、五星感、不過度浮誇）： I surprisingly had a wonderful experience on today’s Kanazawa tour. Our guide was extremely humorous, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. He patiently answered all of my questions and turned them into interesting and enjoyable discussions. He also shared many authentic local recommendations — and even take me to a truly local delicious curry! Highly recommend requesting Gary and his professional team. They made the tour memorable and genuinely enjoyable.

It’s our first Kimono experience and we were very satisfied. We reserved a session the night before and went there at 10am. The shop is located close to the Kanazawa station, so 10mn by bus to Higashi Chaya district for taking wonderful photos. There were 2 ladies who were nice and gentle, they helped us chosing the kimonos and dressed us. We initially selected the 1-star kimonos on Klook but weren’t interested in the items in the store so we upgraded to the 2-star ones for around 1500 yen. There was not a large selection overall but the items are well-preserved and priced. The preparation for 2 people would take up to around 30-45mn, of course more time spent on the hair dressing for my wife. The weather was quite cold when we were in Kanzawa and we only wore kimonos outside but honestly it was pretty warm and comfy. We returned back the kimonos at 3pm after wandering and taking many photos at Higashi Shaya, Kenroku garden. Overal great experience, we would highly recommend this shop!

Great cultural sites. particularly loved the temporary exhibition at the art museum. chose a perfect sunny day to explore

Such a great tour with good enthusiastic guide 小Xi and safe Japanese driver. Big coach was clean and comfortable. The scenery along the way was beautiful. Everything went well. We were very lucky to have a guide who spoke clearly and gave detailed instructions, information and recommendations both verbally and through WhatsApp. The itinerary was excellent with sufficient time at every stop. The tour is self-guided so we enjoyed the flexibility to do what we want and roam around freely based on the many places suggested by 小Xi who WhatsApp the exact location on Google maps to us. He also provided maps and gave food suggestions. We stayed at Hotel MyStays Kanazawa. Rooms are clean and new but very small. Double bed is also very small for two people. Best to ask for twin beds when booking this tour. Breakfast at the hotel was great with a wide spread of local and continental food. Overall we enjoyed this tour very much. Highly recommend this over a day tour to Shirakawago/Takayama.
